Compilation warnings are not only ugly, they may indicate code that does not
function as intended. I think it would be worth cleaning up the warnings. (I
think it's a good idea to leave the inlining warnings alone, since that's
highly compiler-dependent.)

Unfortunately, I'm way down-level, so I can't help. Maybe you could clean up
the code that you can adequately test?

Subject: Compilation warnings


When I first became involved with Xerces, I was amazed at the number of 
compilation warnings generated when rebuilding the library.  I had always 
assumed that because Xerces was a work-in-progress, that these would 
eventually be cleaned up.  That doesn't seem to be the case.  I could make 
the edits but don't have the ability to adequately test *all* the 
changes.  Most are nearly all trivial edits.  Alternately, I (and hopefully 
others) could fix things one module at a time.  Is there interest in 
addressing the warnings?  I don't see suppressing them as a permanent 
solution.  It merely hides potentially bad code or bad coding practices.
